I know one of the database moderators will know how to sort this out ... if it needs sorting. I just entered information for a plant that I've always known as Clerodendrum ugandense: Blue Glorybower (Rotheca myricoides subsp. myricoides)

Upon googling and reading I see that the KEW site states that C. ugandense is a synonym for Rotheca myricoides subsp. myricoides: http://apps.kew.org/wcsp/qsear...

The following is copied and pasted from the KEW site:
Clerodendrum ugandense Prain, Bot. Mag. 135: t. 8235 (1909).
This name is a synonym.
Accepted Name: Rotheca myricoides subsp. myricoides.

There is an entry in the ATP database to R. myricoides subsp. myricoides: but no information listed as yet.

Should the info and photo's for Clerodendrum ugandense be transferred over to the entry for Rotheca myricoides subsp. myricoides and have the entry for C. ugandense deleted? I tried to make the proposal but got a message stating the plant already exists ... so, if it needs to be switched maybe one of the moderators can do it.

It doesn't take much to rattle my old brain and get me confused. Smiling
